WHO KILLED CHRIST ?

I am a Jewish believer in Jesus. That means I believe Jesus is the Messiah that the Jewish people are looking for. Jesus is also the Christ of Christianity. Jesus is one and the same, the SON of GOD. I have been asked the question WHO KILLED CHRIST, by both Jewish and non-Jewish friends, since the release of Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion of Christ”. The following is my answer to the question, “Who killed Jesus, The Christ”.

The “ANSWER” to this question can simply be put into one sentence. But understanding the question and the far-reaching implications that the “ANSWER” has attached to it requires a much greater “ANSWER” than one simple sentence can express.

Who killed Christ? I did, You did, every human being that has walked this earth did, the Romans did and the Jews did. But, THE PERSON who bears sole responsibility for the death of The Christ is HIS FATHER ALMIGHTY GOD.

The God who created the universe, the earth, mankind and all that is upon the earth, also created Time and History. The mystery of history is that it is really HIS- Story, the story of Jesus/Yeshua the Messiah, the Christ. PRE-WRITTEN History is the story of how and why Gods Only Son chose to enter space and time to die on a Cross for the Sins of everyone. So that when we die believing in Jesus as our LORD and SAVIOR, you and I could have a way to go home to be with God in Heaven.

The Bible is the only extra-terrestrial communication that we have ever received. You can prove its claims by investigating History, Archeology, Science and most of all Prophecy….it is 100 % accurate! ALL other Religious Systems cannot stand under the same scrutiny and claim to represent THE TRUTH. The other world views are religions with man reaching out to the stars for answers. Christianity is about a relationship with the God who created us. The God who reaches His hand down to us, by sending His Son to us , to communicate His Love for us.

The Judeo-Christian Bible answers all of your questions about history. It explains the beginning of everything; current events and the end of this evil world system yet to come and the glorious future of Eden found again. It speaks of the new Eternal Earth, recreated ONLY for those of us who accept the sacrifice of Jesus the Messiah, the Christ for our Sin’s.

The Scriptures are God’s Prophecies of historical events. In Isaiah 48 vs. 3 God speaks through the Prophet Isaiah…“I declared the former things long ago and they went forth from My mouth and I proclaimed them. Suddenly I acted, and they came to pass…..therefore I proclaimed them to you long ago, before they took place I proclaimed them to you.” Prophecy is God’s pre-written history.

I have been thinking about the cities of refuge and how they were given for those who commit manslaughter – to give them a place to take refuge from the avenger of blood until the death of the high priest. I believe that we are all responsible for His death in a roundabout way, so that’s why I’m thinking that we are guilty of manslaughter, not murder. We run to the city of refuge, which is Christ, to escape His avenger of blood (the Father). However, because Christ is also the high priest, it is His very death that also absolves us from our sin! What do you think? Am I grasping at straws to make a connection, or is there really a connection there? I would love to have input from someone who can actually read the Hebrew passages that make provisions for the cities of refuge.
